From the administration that told us the “war on drugs” was an anachronistic construct, we now see that war being escalated, with all the emphasis on enforcement we get from the law-and-order rightwing. Of course, this should be no surprise. Obama is a progressive Democrat, and just as Wilson gave us the Harrison Narcotics Act, FDR banned marijuana, LBJ extended drug prohibition to ever more substances and Clinton began the federal raids on medicial cannibas clinics despite the Tenth Amendment, Mr. Hope and Change is following in his predecessors’ footsteps.
